TRAINING RIDES
PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!
Training ride details have not been confirm yet for 2026. Primarily because we are still praying for snow in mid-January.
Here is last years schedule for training rides with the George’s & RF Foundations Pro Team. It will be similar to this year.
Dates are 5/24, 5/31, 6/14, 6/29, and 7/12.
The rides are structured as follows
10:15 AM… @ George’s Cycles Downtown
A Group + B Group Training
A Group will ride as far up as where the road becomes wet or snow-covered each week (or group dynamics)
B Group will progressively train each Saturday building up to the full climb
Week 1- 4 Miles (Aprx Dry Creek Trailhead)
week 2 - 8 Miles (Aprx Stark Mansion)
week 3 - 12 Miles (Aprx Lower Stackrock)
week 4 - 16 miles Simplot Lodge
B GROUP IS RIDING TOGETHER TO THE BASE OF THE CLIMB, THEN RIDING YOUR OWN PACE TO TURN AROUND. THE RIDE LEADER WILL FLOAT AMONG RIDERS. ONCE WE GO PAST 8 MILES WE WILL REGROUP AT WATER DROPS WHEN IT GETS WARMER/HOT.
Great way to get ready for the climb!
